What’s better than an audio guide? If ‘a picture tells 1000 words’, tons of images presented throughout a narrated walking tour, must be the next best way to explore, entertain, and impress travelers worldwide. Tours4Mobile founder Marie Profant explains, “Our professionally written and curated tours have always been uniquely different from traditional audio tours in that they include pictures with nearly every paragraph, so that people can preview and plan where they want to spend their valuable time and money, and at the destination they know what the narrator is talking about, and virtual travelers can transport themselves as well. Based on this concept we have sold thousands of tours, narrated and in QuietGuide® format – which is like an eBook but with tons of images, interactive maps and many additional functions via our app. Now, by adding location aware features, we’ve made the tours even more convenient in that you don’t need to tap or click a thing to start the narration. As we like to say, it is ‘as smart as your new mobile device’.” The new tours include enhanced interactive maps, and don’t require a specific sequence of POIs (points of interest). The apps are available in the Apple and Android stores for $4.99 each. Look for more Tours4Mobile with real-time navigation in the coming weeks, with innovative, intuitive, and interactive mobile technology powered by our partner iApp Tours, developed by Rick Bonatto, Software Architect and CEO.
